we heard from prosecutor john guy the other day. he made an emotional appeal to these jurors, telling them to look into the heart. look into the heart of george zimmerman. look into the heart of trayvon martin. but specifically ask whether george zimmerman wanted to shoot or just didn't want to shoot, if it was an accident. he suggested that it was. and we also heard from mark o'mara. mark o'mara did sort of a legal lesson, if you will. explaining to jurors, first of all, what it takes to charge a person for a crime. basically to find a person guilty or not guilty. went through great explanation with that. and then he showed several charts. and he showed that video reenactment of the scene from the account of george zimmerman. and also explain to the jurors that they have to decide the case based on facts, not on circumstantial evidence. it will be interesting to see when this happens or what happens. we're on verdict watch. could come down today. could come down tomorrow possibly. but we're as waiting to see what happens monday. >>
